Scars can be Beautiful

Chapter 20

~Lloyd's POV~

It Was Rodger.

"Hey..." It was all I could come up with . Jordan and Mohawk were looking at me strangely .

Rodger breathes a laugh .

"RODGER!" Roxy goes and pulls him into her arms . That's exactly where I wanted to be . In her arms . But no, instead I was watching some other fellow , whom I hated since the day I met him , fall into them .

"Hey Sweetie" Sweetie?

"Sweetie?" Jordan asks.

Roxy smiles .

But there's something about that smile that was wrong .

It was fake .

"Of course , we've been dating for the last year and a half " She's say with a big (fake) smile .

I stare at her blankly .

"Oh how wonderful . How long have you two been living... Here?" Mohawk asks .

"5 years . I don't know what it was , but for the first 3 years and a half , I would never acknowledge him . I think I had feelings for someone else ..." she stares into space and then shrugs . " I don't know ."

"You don't know?" I ask .

"Well, I've been told that I have a bad memory . so , I seriously forgot ." That didn't sounded Like my Roxy , like Roxy at all . Roxy had an awesome memory . That's how she passed all those impossible tests . so something was really off here .

"That's impossible... Roxy you have an amazing memory . " Jordan states .

Roxy gives her a questioning face .

"What are you taking about? No I don't , and how would you know anyways? I don't even now you ." That must have hurt Jordan, because she winced . Having your best friend tell you she doesn't know you doesn't exactly feel nice .

Roxy must have noticed the wince , because she looked down at her shoes , with a sadden face .

"Ok , you don't know us . "  I start to say " but we really need a place to stay the night we promise well leave right away tomorrow . But please , were pretty much homeless... " I finish and look at the beautiful couple in front of me . Rodger nods

"Fine, but you leave right away on the morning ." I nod .

He rings a bell . After about 30 seconds of waiting , Ruby comes stumbling in .

"Escort these ... Guests to there rooms . The Guest house , right next to my , OUR bedroom ." He puts his arm around Roxy's shoulder. I feel like Gale . This must be how he feels when Peers gets to do that to Katniss . Wait , why am I relating my life to a book ? And why am I the character that doesn't get the girl ?

I'm not making this any easier .
